Hello growers =]

My setup is : Small closet, 11L pot, Coco+per, 250w dual spectrum light, temps : perfect, 2nd week
into flowering, Nuts - going side by side with GHE feeding chart for coco [15,10,5] using the
basic 3 bottles + Biobloom + Mineral Magic, PH : 5.5-6, anything else?


It my first time with Shiva skunk [Sensi] and i`m not sure what to do about this :

its seems like she`s still pushing up the small/lame branches.
i started to take some of the leaves off, really hoping she will give everything she can
on the flowers. any thoughts here? not sure if i should give her extra nuts or just
go by the book like i did till now.

P.S : Maybe my light is too close to the plant? keeping it short and bushy?


thanks all!

I wouldn't take any more leaves off, they supply the buds with energy so more leaves at the start of flowering the better I say. If the plant doesn't show the need for more nutes I wouldn't push it, just keep going how you're going it looks great so far.

thanks Noinch, i just change the battery in my e.c meter and it was shocking!
i thought im feeding 1 e.c with the GHE schedule but the guy in the shop
just told me that with low battery come low values, so i find out she drinks 1.6 e.c, and
it seems like she`s taking it good =] isn`t sound high? just check my r.o and it was 2.0 us
so im flushing now with 1.3 solution, want to take it back to 1.6 .

Maybe more photos will make you reply =]]

So 10 days later, feeding with [5,10,15] GHE nuts, ending week 3 flowering.
like i wrote before, im trying GHE [europe] feeding chart, so tomorrow ill flush
her with FloraKleen for 24 hours and continue with the same feeding till the end.
e.c is 1550us, seems to be low for this period but im going by the instructions ,
just want to see how it works listening to a recipe once. temps increases recently -
74-77 with lights on. humidity is 50%-65%. Oh and i still have RIPEN for the last
10 days, i hope thats going to bring some heavy buds.
